Title + Why you like that client?
I am using eternity from some hours and my fav is liftoff.
Eternity, hands down the best,
open source = no ads or tracking
very cutomisable, smooth navigation, no major bugs. + supports older phones
For me it’s very buggy, although I still like it the most.
Does it mark read on scroll? I checked it out early but it seemed to lack that feature.
I personally don’t use the feature, but I just tested it and it seems to work. How well, I don’t know; it would require more extensive usage.
In case you end up trying Eternity again, the setting is under preferences -> post history.
Thank you, I’ll give it another download and spin.
yes it does
Boost just launched today. Loved it for Reddit
Thats great news! I wonder if I have to buy it again.
The ad-supported free option is still there. But yeah, if you want premium, you’ll need to buy again.
Personally I use sync. I know it’s a touchy subject but it works flawlessly for me. I did buy the $20 no ads option so ads don’t affect me at all.
You don’t need to throw disclaimers, all FOSS bros need to understand that we can use whatever the heck we want, so they can.
Anyone can use whatever they want, ofc. But this is the opensource sub, lol
There was a poll a week ago and it reached over 6000 votes. That won’t answer Why, but you get a general idea which clients people use.
That was before boost was released. I bet it’ll look different now.
Unless people value their data and won’t use boost
They’re using sync. I think that has the same issues
How liftoff is so far down on that list baffles me
Same here my fav client
It’s a good app, but it also hasn’t received an update in two months.
That’s a shame, well I guess I’ll keep using it till it stops working. Then I would probably be switching back to Eternity as I used to use Infinity
I used Liftoff for quite a while. It just stopped working one day about 3-ish weeks ago. Couldn’t ever get it to work again. I might be an outlier, but if others had the same experience it may explain it.
Thanks btw ur client
I’m using Eternity, because I used Infinity for Reddit before and it’s just the most familiar client for me.
It needs to be updated to include Boost… maybe in a couple of weeks…
Jerboa It made by dev of lemmy. And it Minimal
jerboa felt a bit rough around the edges in my opinion. it also decided one day that it had no interest in working on my phone anymore, so i was forced to switch. can’t say i would recommend it
Jerboah actually. Its the most complete, stable and looks very good. Used Thunder but it lacks features and is kinda buggy. I was hyped about Infinity, but I only really needed Infinity to have private subscriptions and multi accounts, which I dont have on Lemmy.
I came from rif is fun and so I’m using Jerboa now. I don’t need a fancy UI, I need minimalism.
I use Connect and I’ve liked it. being able to block communities I don’t want in my feed is easy and I get the impression that other apps don’t have this feature. I can also block posts by keywords which is also nice not having to see post after post about Elon or furries
Can’t speak for most apps but communities can be blocked on Eternity and Thunder. I just wish there was a way to block an entire instance as user
Connect can block instances and users
Think most apps have the blocking features, actually.
Boost - Mainly because is what I used on reddit
Connect.
It’s an all-new app, and not just some dev’s existing Reddit app wrapped around Lemmy.
And it’s free with no tracking, no ads, and no crazy $100 pricetag to remove ads for a social network that’s still on somewhat shaky ground.
I love connect. I used sync for a bit and it’s great too but I fully switched to connect now
I love Connect too!
Eternity, no doubt.
Jeroba because it’s dev made and it was like the only one when I got on Lemmy. And it’s actually good. Recently started using Eternity as well because I was using Infinity as my main client for reddit.
Sync by a country mile
Eternity. I was using infinity for years for reddead and having an in-situ replacement is nice.
Eternity which is a fork of Infinity for Reddit. I’ve been using Infinity for ages so I really love Eternity
